Sounds to me like a possible buffering problem. But since youtube-dl is implemented in Python, you might find it easier to "pip install youtube_dl" and work with the methods directly: >>> import youtube_dl >>> youtube_dl.YoutubeDL().download(["m39ydsOPSww"]) Should be possible to manipulate around the outside of that.
